"Remembering The Aquarius Cafe"

Once upon a time, a young man (me) decided to open a small, familiar and fresh bar in Santander. It was difficult for me to find a suitable name for it.
One day, I was cleaning my records and suddenly I stopped at one: Aquarius Dub " The first dub album" by Herman Chin Loy
Done! I have the right name...So I opened "The Aquarius Muzzikafe", the next reggae & black music bar in Santander after "Roots" one's.
Since that, I spent 4 years in my second house, trying to play the best jamaican and black echoes I'd been collected for many years.
Finally, the end of "Aquarius" era get finish this summer but I remember those years as powerful in my life.
Nowdays, I'm thinking and working as a music promoter but some days (like today) I walked along Santander's streets looking for another venue to re-name... Wonderful days!
Here I give you the last compilation I did for my clients (only 100 copies/limited edition), of pure roots & culture jamaican music...

"... Always in my Soul... Aquarius..."
